What is Review about?
## Microvesicles (MVs) in endocrine cells are morphologically similar to neuronal synaptic vesicles. MVs were shown to contain proteins involved in neurotransmitter storage such as vacuolar H + -ATPase and neurotransmitter transporters, and ones in vesicular trafficking such as synaptobrevins and N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive fusion protein. Isolated MVs accumulate cell-specific neurotransmitters in an energy-dependent manner. Upon stimulation, the MVs may fuse with the plasma membrane and secrete the internal neurotransmitters. Thus, endocrine cells possess an MV-mediated secretion system as an intercellular signal transducing system.
